LONDON -- Jade Jones, a two-time Olympic gold medalist in taekwondo, is launching a career in boxing. Jones took gold for Britain in 2012 and 2016 and competed in four Games, most recently in Paris last year. But, at the age of 31, she has announced her move to boxing.

Jade Jones is targeting a professional boxing debut fight in September after setting herself a “crazy” challenge to switch from Taekwondo.
